The news we never wanted to share ๐ข
Sadly, Clare Jones, who has been Chair of HHBA for many years, has decided that the time is right for her to step down and put her family and (most importantly) herself first.
Clare has steered the Association through many good times, welcomed hundreds of members, and also guided us through the challenging COVID years.
From the Committee, what we have all loved about having Clare as our Chair is her passion for giving our members the best possible experience, connecting them with other businesses, and helping them grow their businesses.
From the bottom of our hearts, all of us at Haywards Heath Business Association would like to say a HUGE thank you to you, Clare, for your hard work and dedication over the years. We'll miss you.
We are pleased to be able to announce that Verity Eunson-Hickey, who was Vice-Chair under Clare, has agreed to step up to Chair, with Richard Worsfold, previously a committee member, taking on the Vice-Chair role.
The rest of the Committee will remain in their roles, along with Sue Llewellyn, our Business Manager, and they look forward to seeing you all at events over the next few months.
